Unicorn Cake Roll

You knew it was coming, right? I mean, I can�t believe I didn�t think of it before now: A UNICORN Cake Roll. If this cake doesn�t scream DOROTHY to you, than you don�t know me very well.

I love anything to do with rainbows, sparkles, sprinkles, and unicorns. Currently, thanks to the newest food trend, I�m O-B-S-E-S-S-E-D with Unicorn theme in all of the things. This is my first unicorn recipe, but it�s not going to be my last, that�s for sure.

Jordan�s sixth birthday was a rainbow party. We had rainbow cupcakes and rainbow cookies and lots of rainbow fun. It was then (6 years ago) that I decided I wanted my 40th birthday party to be a rainbow theme too, because I love them so much. Guess what? This year I turn 40 (in September) and am planning a big celebration. It�s not every day that adults are allowed to throw a birthday bash for themselves, so I�m doing 40 big. My theme is still rainbow and it�s evolved to rainbows and sprinkles (because, duh, sprinkles make everything better) and now it also incorporates unicorns because I want to unicorn all the things.

I�m planning to make sprinkle cookies and maybe some fun celebration cookies, and of course, this Unicorn Cake Roll. Because WHY NOT
